Zohra and Nostalgia selected for the Women Only Entertainment film festival

Zohra

In this madcap dark comedy, an aging actress struggles with playing the role of the old nurse in an experimental film version of the Greek classic play MEDEA.

Nostalgia

Cuban American film/theater artist Marissa Chibas collaborated with Cuban artist Aissa Santiso and cinematographer John Hawk on a video reflection of the final audio recording of legendary Cuban political figure Eddy Chibas, whose final tempestuous speech ended in his suicide. Aissa’s grandmother was a follower of Chibas and he was Marissa’s uncle. The artists have used this mutually important Cuban to reflect on nostalgia, Cuban history, loss, and legacy.
